Abstract
The efficient use of Taylor series depends, not on symbolic differentiation, but on a standard set of recurrence formulas for each of the elementary functions and operations. These relationships are often rediscovered and restated, usually in a piecemeal fashion. We seek to provide a fairly thorough and unified exposition of efficient recurrence relations in both univariate and multivariate settings. Explicit formulas all stem from the fact that multiplication of functions corresponds to a Cauchy product of series coefficients, which is more efficient than the Leibniz rule for nth-order derivatives. This principle is applied to function relationships of the form h'=v*u', where the prime indicates a derivative or partial derivative. Each standard (calculator button) function corresponds to an equation, or pair of equations, of this form. A geometric description of the multivariate operation helps clarify and streamline the computation for each desired multi-indexed coefficient. Several research communities use such recurrences including the Differential Transform Method to solve differential equations with initial conditions.
